I 'am

I am the greatest fear and the most hated enemy I am the reason they all suffer, the reason they all cry And the source of all their pain. I am the monster beneath their beds I am the demon inside their heads I am the source of their problems The nightmare in their dreams is me I am the bloody Mary in the mirror The boogeyman is a portrait of me I am the greatest fear and the most hated enemy. I am every one of those hurtful words I am everything that’s goes wrong in the world
